Ron Paul, the crazy Texan who entered politics because Nixon took us off the gold standard, is making waves with rumors that his campaign may have raised some $5 million. That would put him where McCain was last quarter and at about half of Giuliani and Romney's then totals. Now my question is who in God's name is crazy enough to donate to this guy? Obviously the same loons who overran LGF's post-debate polls but it doesn't explain who they are! Coming on top of Rasmussen's poll a few weeks ago which showed 35% of Democrats (and 22% of Americans overall) believe Bush knew about 9/11 beforehand, I'm starting to doubt our national sanity.
Though I have nightmares about the infinitesimal chance that Paul becomes the nominee, I think a more like and realistic scenario is that he'll be rejected by the mainstream of the GOP; I have to believe that most of his supporters are cross-over independents and/or moonbat Democrats who can't vote in most GOP primaries, making his defeat more likely. However he'll refuse to accept defeat and pull a Lieberman, running independently and on a platform that would make Ross "Giant Suckin' Sound" Perot sound positively sane. What the hell is wrong with this world?

Who the hell would be crazy enough to defend the Constitution? What a "moonbat"?
And for your "spamming" myths, two points:
1. Any online polls worth their salt limit voting to one per IP address, which the LGF poll does. Deleting your cookies doesn't work. Furthermore, changing your IP address to re-vote is very difficult.
2. What prevents supporters of other candidates from doing the same??? Nothing!
